Amacrine Cell

Interneurons found in the retina, involved in modulating the output of bipolar cells and influencing the signaling between retinal neurons, contributing to visual processing.

Key Functions:

• Modulates signals between bipolar cells and retinal ganglion cells.
• Contributes to contrast enhancement and motion detection.
• Does not have an axon, communicating via dendrites.

Interacting Systems & Components:

• Retina (located in)
• Bipolar Cell (modulates)
• Retinal Ganglion Cell (influences)
• Neuron (type of)
• Nervous System (part of visual system)
